Draft:Modal counterpoint

Modal counterpoint is a style of counterpoint based chiefly on modes, and generally in a vocal, rather than instrumental, style. It was the dominant form of counterpoint until the 16th century when it was overtaken by tonal counterpoint. The work of Palestrina is prototypical of the style.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
